Uninsured delivery driver hits car
SUMMARY: A woman visiting North Texas for the 4th of July incurred a five-digit repair bill when an uninsured delivery driver hit her parked car. The driver lacked both a driver’s license and proper registration, and Walmart‘s delivery service, Spark, denied responsibility since the driver wasn’t authorized. After failing to receive assistance from Walmart’s customer service, the woman contacted Fox 4 News for help. With evidence documenting the incident, including photos and a police report, Walmart offered her a full settlement for damages within 24 hours. The driver was later found to be working fraudulently under another user’s account on the Spark platform.
She was told to go after his insurance after a delivery driver hit her car. The only problem? He didn’t have any. Why the company involved said they wouldn’t help, and then she got FOX 4 on her side.
